You are There

Sometimes I feel
like my life is falling apart
I want to run
I want to scream
I just don't know what it
is I need to do.

Then I hear You,
that still, small voice,
telling me You are there
and You know my hurt and pain
You haven't left
You've been waiting on me.

To call out unto You
to bring it before You
to lay it at Your feet,
for You to wipe my
tears and hold me close
and tell me it will be ok.

Why do I struggle so?
Oh, Jesus, why don't I
just bring it straight to You?
Why do I try within myself
to figure things out?

In a million years I will
never know of all Your
love and Your marvelous ways.
I know You are there,
even when I can't hear You
or feel You, there You are
still close, waiting on me
arms opened wide, ready
to comfort and love me.
